Good day gents, as some of you may be aware, I am running the R.R.R project (Reclamation, Restoration, Reindex), here is a brief summary of what it entails:

“This would be in an attempt to archive almost everything that is currently available for the 1946 community, as well as find what has been potentially lost to the decay of the internet.” … “We are looking for:

-Skins
-Missions
-Campaigns
-Standalone Mods
-Server Scripts and Aids
-Maps
-Mission making resources such as documentation on certain things etc
-Anything else that is not listed we will take. (Seriously, anything)”

If you wish to read the full post, the link is here: https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php?topic=72611.0

So far, many people have stepped up and thrown things into the project. We have amassed an approximate total of 130 Thousand Skins, which is an estimation on the low side. Anyone who donates to the project will be added to the list of “supporters”. It is in a google drive account that certain users have been given access to for bulk uploads. Anyone who volunteers to upload things will be given access as well (Or a similar system will be implemented). There is no requirement to index anything, simply drag and drop your “missions” folder or “campaigns” folder from your various installs into the drive and you’re done! 

So please, step forward! I am reaching out to the community as that is what has kept this game going for so long. All I ask for is support and donations of user files. The project will be made public in a short while, once done organizing has been done.

If you wish to donate either reply below or send me a PM.

Looking forward to hearing from people,

Cheers,

sercrets.

Some time ago there was talk of making a campaign/mission archive. I don't know what became of that but someone here must. For myself, I have 10.4G of campaigns collected starting sometime before 2005. I am not very computer literate though and wouldn't know how to send them, if even possible.

Would you be willing to follow instructions if I gave you them? It is super simple, I can even make a video for you to watch if you please. Thanks for your help and the enthusiasm.

When it comes to old missions and forgotten skins sites these links should send you down a practically never ending rabbit hole.  ]evil6[

I did an index of all campaigns that were on m4t around 2014. It will be on this site somewhere

Here is another from the ancient past. At least in Internet years.  ;)

Bluebyte circa April 2001.

New to the game or one of the old guard and just want to reminisce then click on the links option on the left side of the page I linked and start following the websites that were around in 2001. You should find interviews with Oleg that are no longer online plus mission and skin websites that have long since shuttered. While not all of them will you be able to download the old content I think you will be surprised how many of them you find where the content was backed up and available since that early in the web not many of the sites had login requirements and the download was not hidden behind a website mirror.

Hello Secrets, a video would be great. I'll keep it for possible future use. 10.4G can be sent without a problem?

Absolutely! Storebror has sent me 700 gigabytes of data already! Mainly mod things, however data none-the-less. I get home from work in 2 hours and will promptly record a video. Will post here as well as message you that it is done. The only thing you need to do, is follow the video, and leave your computer on for a day or two for the data transfer to complete. (If this is not possible there are other ways, however this is the easiest.)

Thanks for your help, cheers,
